Pay too much for your hosting?
Have you ever think that you pay too much for your hosting cost compared to what you really going to need and use?
When you think to have your own domain name for your blog or website, finding a web host is probably the first thing will cross your mind, isn’t it? And if you are a beginner, you might think that, whoaa, i had to buy a host package which has big storage and gigantic bandwith as cheap as possible.
Than you start your browser rolling, from web page to another just to find which company offer the biggest and meanest of all, you might even think going for a reseller plan, as the bigger you buy the cheaper the cost gonna be, it might even cheaper than your sneaker. Well, i did too, and i know some people who did too, that’s why i know for detail.
Have you ever realize that decent blog with decent content like wordpress plus some decent .jpg, themes and plugin need no more that 50MB to alive? Well yes it’s different story for a photo gallery.
Do you let your monstrous bandwith sitting doing nothing?
If your blog is just a first time blog for you, you got no plan to monetize it or use it in anyway other than to say Hello World and keep relationship with your fellow friend. And you know that :
- Your blog will gonna filled by some few short post per day,
- Your blog is personal diary which mostly contain text and sometimes photos too,
- Your blog which attract only 30-50 people per day,
than your monstrous bandwith might be sitting at the corner smoking without doing anything good.
I know a guy who has PR5 WordPress Site with Alexa traffic rank at around 100.000 with 400-600 unique visitors a day, just uses less that 1GB of transfer each month, and how do you and me the average joe and jane would swallow that 10GB of bandwith monthly?
It is a mind opening
What i am writing here is not to offend any of web hosting company whose offering those gigantic package in cheap, a lot of people i know benefit are getting great benefit from your packages. Neither if you are a client of a gigantic package and you have purchased any of those package because you see it fit your need, than hot for you.
I just want to give people a chance to see whether they are paying what they really need, and a new point of view for some people who doesn’t want to spend money on anything they don’t need for.
THC Rudolf plan suit me
I myself host my blog and some niche wordpress site here in tophosting center, because i feel it has a good customer service and there is great people whose ready and willing to help, even though there are some limitation on my shared hosting plan, but hey, i get what i paid for.
The reason i choose THC over the other, was because it offered me lifetime hosting with its limited rudolf plan. It was my plan to have some niche websites and subdomain in an account and the rudolf plan perfectly match it. Eventhough my bandwith and storage meter haven’t move even near to its maximum bar so far.
What do you think?
